Re-using bank accounts for PayPals

[TechTro]

Hello.

Before I get mean replies i know that 1 PayPal= 1 Bank account.

With that being said. I wonder if you can remove the bank account from the paypal (not limited paypal) and link it a brand new paypal. has anyone been successful at doing this or does paypal just limit both accounts because they are under different names?

Or this is I thin might be more clever. Remove the bank account from a useless not Limited paypal account, delete that paypal account because it is coming close to the IRS threshold, open a new one (im not sure whether it should be under the same name or different name) and then link that same bank account to it.

What do you think, will paypal be suspicious of this? Has anyone ever experimented because I have no choice but to in a month or so.

For those of you who dont know I will let you know how it goes!

Any input??

Honestly....Your lucky your getting this reply. Please don't think Paypal forgets..anything!
with that in mind, think of your question again and then think of what the answer would be.

I don't know where you live but you can go to multiple banks and open multiple accounts.

Oh, so you are hoping to remove/delete a paypal account and re-use its bank account on your next paypal account to subvert tax responsibilities without a reaction from 'we practise kindness & killing accounts daily' paypal?

B+ for thinking

I understand that I can open multiple bank accounts.
Currently I am in a situation where I can not open many accounts for personal reasons, this is why I am trying all these loopholes.

Thanks for the advise

No matter your situation anyone can get some kind of checking account.

Thank you Sandy. I will use your advice. Im guessing re using bank accounts is a bad idea and I should even try to pursue it?


The will most likely link the accounts!

paypal will reject the attempt stating that the account has already been used/is being used.
The system hoards that information

I hope you mean 'not' try to pursue it?

Correct. Re-using info links accounts.

Info may be deleted from 'your' side. Sadly it is retained on the paypal/ebay side.

Have you considered a credit union?

[TechTro]

What do you mean by Credit Union??

You can also try prepaid cards as they come with a bank account number and routing information. Search the forums to see which ones will work as there are a lot of cards but some that do not work with mismatched names.

Plus, don't try attaching a used bank on another Paypal unless you want a lot of limited Paypal accounts.

[TechTro]

Thank you very much!

If you can PM some prepaid cards you can suggest I would really appreciate it.

There are quite a few around - have you visited your local Walmart?

[TechTro]

Hahaha. I will look into that.
Do you know of any the accept Mismatched names?

[rsot]

For those kind of cards, would suggest slight alteration of names not completely mismatched....some of those cards have been known to cause issues with nonmatching names

That's a do with caution approach.

Avoid too much of a mis-match with names. Reduces likelihood of problems.

[TechTro]

Thank you! I will take do so.
